Ziad Ahmad Saad Soliman Nawar, Ziad (author)Machine learning (ML) systems for computer vision applications are widely deployed in decision-making contexts, including high-stakes domains such as autonomous driving and medical diagnosis. While largely accelerating the decision-making process, those systems have been found to suffer from a severe issue of reliability, i.e., they can easily...master thesis 2023

Park, S.Y. (author), Newton, C.E.L. (author), Lee, Rachel (author)The sudden adoption of working from home (WFH) during the COVID-19 pandemic has required the reconfiguration of home spaces to fit space for remote work into existing spaces already filled with other domestic functions. This resulted in blurring of home and work boundaries, the potential lack of space for telecommuting from home, and...journal article 2023

Drabicki, Arkadiusz (author), Cats, O. (author), Kucharski, R.M. (author), Fonzone, Achille (author), Szarata, Andrzej (author)Overcrowding is a major phenomenon affecting travel experience in urban public transport, whose negative impacts can be potentially mitigated with real-time crowding information (RTCI) on public transport vehicle departures. In this study, we investigate the willingness to wait (WTW) with instantaneous RTCI to avoid the in-vehicle (over...journal article 2023

Yap, M.D. (author), Wong, Howard (author), Cats, O. (author)It is important to understand how public transport passengers value on-board crowding since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The main contribution of this study is to derive the crowding valuation of public transport passengers in a post-pandemic era entirely based on observed, actual passenger route choices. We derive passengers’...journal article 2023

Van Nieuwkerk, Johan L. (author), Van Der Linden, M. Christien (author), Verheul, Rolf J. (author), Van Loon-Van Gaalen, Merel (author), Janmaat, Marije (author), van der Linden, N. (author)BACKGROUND: In patients with chest pain who arrive at the emergency department (ED) by ambulance, venous access is frequently established prehospital, and could be utilized to sample blood. Prehospital blood sampling may save time in the diagnostic process. In this study, the association of prehospital blood draw with blood sample arrival times,...journal article 2023

Ma, Yao (author), Abbas, T. (author), Gadiraju, Ujwal (author)Crowd-powered conversational systems (CPCS) solicit the wisdom of crowds to quickly respond to on-demand users' needs. The very factors that make this a viable solution - -such as the availability of diverse crowd workers on-demand - - also lead to great challenges.

Singh, Jyotsna (author), Correia, Gonçalo (author), van Wee, G.P. (author), Barbour, N.M. (author)After the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, crowding has been highlighted as a risk factor for contracting acute respiratory infections (ARIs) such as COVID-19, which has affected the demand for public transport. Although several countries, including the Netherlands, have implemented differential fare systems for peak and off-peak travel to...journal article 2023

Bharos, Abri (author)Powerful predictive AI systems have demonstrated great potential in augmenting human decision-making. Recent empirical work has argued that the vision for optimal human-AI collaboration requires ‘appropriate reliance’ of humans on AI systems. However, accurately estimating the trustworthiness of AI advice at the instance level is quite...master thesis 2022

Boendermaker, Floris (author)Crowd management is a crucial element in keeping situations safe. Models can help understand in-event crowd management system more thoroughly, and illustrate potential effects of measures before they have to be implemented in real life. However, applications of crowd models for operational support on in-event crowd management are sparse. Two...master thesis 2022

Hwang, Sun Ah (author)To every rise and fall of nations, crowds were vital. They could appear in the form of armies defending their motherlands or revolutionaries rewriting the courses of history, but they are also vital to political baiting beloved by every ‘big guy’. Crowds also bring in life to the masses; it is the various social spectacles that we (occasionally)...master thesis 2022

Koreman, Romeny (author)Waiting outside in a long line in front of a music building is not always pleasant. Sometimes concert visitors stand in line for hours and even in the rain. This waiting time and experience are related to the overall experience of the concert night. Therefore, the waiting time should be reduced and the waiting should become more pleasant. To...master thesis 2022

Peftitsi, Soumela (author), Jenelius, Erik (author), Cats, O. (author)Overcrowding has become a big challenge for public transport systems, affecting passengers’ travel experience. At the same time, service supply is often underutilized due to large variations in crowding across services, vehicle trips on the same service and different compartments of the same vehicle. Real-time operational measures, such as...journal article 2022

Shelat, S. (author), Cats, O. (author), van Cranenburgh, S. (author)With a few exceptions, public transport ridership around the world has been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Travellers are now likely to adapt their behaviour with a focus on factors that contribute to the risk of COVID-19 transmission. Given the unprecedented spatial and temporal scale of this crisis, these changes in behaviour may even...journal article 2022

Drabicki, Arkadiusz (author), Kucharski, Rafał (author), Cats, O. (author)A common problem in public transport systems is bus bunching, characterized by a negative feedback loop between service headways, number of boarding passengers and dwell times. In this study, we examine whether providing real-time crowding information (RTCI) at the stop regarding the two next vehicle departures can stimulate passengers to...journal article 2022
